History

Ryan LLC was founded by chairman and CEO G. Brint Ryan[10] in 1991.[11] In 2007, the company launched myRyan, a results-focused work environment, as a pilot program in its Houston office. The company implemented the program through the entire company in 2008.[12][13]

In 2012, Ryan LLC acquired the TAARP Group, a tax and penalty review firm.[14] Since 2012, Ryan LLC has been included on the Inc 5000 list of fastest growing companies.[15] Ryan LLC acquired the property tax services business from Thomas Reuters in January 2013.[16] The company reported a revenue of $390 million in 2013.[15] That same year, Ryan LLC established Culture Council, a team of employees from around the globe that review all internal and external employee feedback data in order to recommend change and improvement for the betterment of the business.[17] Ryan LLC was featured on the Working Mother list of 100 best companies in 2013 and 2014.[18][19]

Ryan LLC opened an office in Paris with Jean-Paul Ousksel, president of the VAT commission of Mouvement des Entreprises de France, as principle of the office in 2014.[20] In November 2014, Ryan LLC announced its purchase of WTP Advisors, an independent tax services firm.[21][22]

Ryan purchased Taxaccord, a tax automation services firm, in January 2015.[23][24] In March 2015, Ryan LLC acquired Second Decimal, a tax technology firm.[25][26] Also in 2015, Ryan LLC made the Fortune list of 100 Best Companies to Work For.[27]

Employees of Ryan LLC contribute to political campaigns through Ryan PAC, a political action group formed by the firm.[28]

Litigation

In August 2014, the Governor's Office of Business and Economic Development prohibited site-selection consultants from taking a percentage of the California Competes tax credit, a tax break given to businesses planning on locating or expanding in the state. Ryan sued GO-Biz shortly after the agency implemented the tax credit ban, alleging the prohibition violates the state of California constitution.[29]

In 2014, Ryan LLC won a lawsuit against the IRS regarding Circular 230 rules on contingent fee arrangements that invalidates and permanently enjoins the IRS from prohibiting such arrangements for refund claims and amended returns. The district court ruled that the IRS did not have the statutory authority to place these restrictions.[30]

Philanthropy

Ryan LLC volunteers work with Habitat for Humanity and have built a neighborhood resource center as well as a family residence. The company received the 2012 Spirit of Habitat award for advocating and raising awareness of the program.[14] In 2013, Ryan offices sponsored outreach initiatives for 77 community organizations, including the American Red Cross, The Salvation Army Angel Tree, Ronald McDonald House Charities, and food and clothing banks and shelters.[1]
